Shared Security with Barracuda on Amazon Web Services

Amazon Web Services offers a broad set of secure compute, storage, application, and deployment services that help organizations to move faster, scale applications, and lower IT costs. However, since you are still responsible for protecting your own AWS-based assets you need security that can complement the AWS shared security model. That’s where Barracuda can help.

Barracuda and Amazon work well together - we both want to make IT simple while delivering comprehensive, in-depth security.

"We had security gaps in our departments. We looked around, did some research and found exactly what we wanted in Barracuda. That’s about the whole story."

Barracuda Solutions Available in AWS GovCloud Region

Barracuda’s AWS-enabled products are available in AWS GovCloud – an isolated AWS region designed to allow US government agencies, nonprofits and educational institutions, and private sector companies with heightened security needs to move sensitive workloads into the cloud. AWS GovCloud helps organizations address very specific compliance requirements including those posed by the US International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), FedRAMPSM and DoD CSM Levels 1-5 specifications. Barracuda provides the additional layer of real-time security for applications built on this AWS GovCloud environment, allowing customers to completely protect their mission critical workloads. Customers can now leverage best-in-class Barracuda security and storage solutions with their applications strengthening their overall privacy and data protection policies.

Receive automatic updates with defense against new threats and vulnerabilities with real-time protection

Use strong authentication and access control capabilities to ensure security and privacy – restrict access to sensitive applications or data

Ability to bootstrap and auto scale as required with automated and clustered deployments using CloudFormation templates.

Available on the AWS marketplace as a single AMI or as a CloudFormation Template via the AWS Marketplace support for Clusters and AWS Resources

Barracuda’s simplified IT model gives your organization an easy to use and affordable security solution. Companies of all sizes can enjoy total application security without learning, configuring, or managing complex technology.

Deploy Barracuda Web Application Firewall on AWS

Take advantage of auto-scaling by deploying the Barracuda Web Application Firewall clusters in an auto-scaling group on AWS.

Build a multi-tier redundant architecture that allows you to independently scale each tier based on your requirements.

Automatically scale based on metrics or a schedule to meet business needs. (An example of metric based scaling is an increase in traffic load; an example of scheduled scaling is to meet a planned traffic increase during a sale or holiday.)

Powerful Support for AWS Services

As an AWS Security Competency Certified Partner, the Barracuda Web Application Firewall supports a variety of AWS Services enabling customers to fully leverage the power of their AWS environment. The support includes the ablity to launch a dynamically scaling cluster of Barracuda WAF’s using AWS CloudFormation Templates. In such deployments, the Barracuda Web Application Firewall integrates with CloudWatch for performance monitoring and scaling alarms. All deployments are within an AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and secured using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).

The Barracuda Web Application Firewall fully supports deployment with the AWS Elastic Load Balancer. The AWS ELB can be deployed both upstream and downstream of the Barracuda Web Application Firewall auto scaling cluster. This ensures that the backend application servers can auto scale independently of the Barracuda Web Application Firewall cluster.

The Barracuda Web Application Firewall is available across various AWS regions and marketplace options. It is available on the AWS GovCloud region, which is a secure and isolated AWS Region desgned for US governement and related entities with stringent reglatory and compiance requirements. The Barracuda Web Application Firewall is also available on the AWS Marketplace Support for Clusters and AWS Resources programs. This allows customers to launch the Barracuda Web Application Firewall via a Cloud Formation Template directly from the marketplace page.

Amazon Web Services provides a number of tools and processes to help you move critical business applications like SharePoint to the cloud. Capitalize on the AWS shared security responsibility model by implementing your own tools to secure SharePoint deployments in the cloud, especially when providing access to remote users via the Internet.

The Barracuda Web Application Firewall running on AWS helps secure your SharePoint deployment to the cloud, including protection from web-based attacks, data leak prevention, denial of service protection, and user access controls. Many AWS customers have addressed these and other challenges related to dynamic scaling, load balancing as well as federating their corporate directory for accessing SharePoint with a Barracuda Web Application Firewall on AWS.

Discover Existing Web Application Vulnerabilities

Web application development is a dynamic process, and with features to implement and timelines to meet, security vulnerabilities will inevitably occur. The Barracuda Vulnerability Manager is a non-invasive, web-based scanning tool that quickly discovers application security flaws such as those on the OWASP Top 10, including SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and others. It is provided at no charge by Barracuda. The detailed output of the scan lists all vulnerabilities discovered, ranks them from most to least critical, and provides additional insights to help you address them.

Centrally manage multiple Barracuda WAF units

The Barracuda Application Security Control Center is the centralized management system that allows administrators to manage multiple geo-dispersed Barracuda Web Application Firewalls with varying configurations from a single console.

When hosting web applications on Amazon Web Services, it’s important for your users to see the same or better performance as they would if the application was deployed within a local data center. The Barracuda Load Balancer ADC provides rich Layer 7 application management and delivery features on AWS, and offers proven technology that has blocked more than 11 billion real-world attacks combined with outstanding ease of use with pre-built application templates for rapid deployment.

Deploy the Barracuda Load Balancer ADC on AWS

Take advantage of advanced load balancing and application security features of the Barracuda Load Balancer ADC by deploying it in a High Availability (HA) cluster on AWS. The deployment can be fully automated by using AWS CloudFormation Templates and the Barracuda Load Balancer ADC's bootstrapping capabilities.

Email servers that reside in the cloud deserve the same level of comprehensive security as email servers that reside on premises. That’s why it’s advantageous to use Barracuda’s proven email security solution that includes the same technology and has the same suite of features as our award-winning hardware appliance.
